Here are 5 Free tips to improve video post reach:

  •  Add audio, to the video talk and be yourself.

  •  Be concise - This post had only seven words (before tagging). - Keep the video short -  longer videos need to be engaging initially to keep attention.

  •  Follow trends - The storm in Ontario was on everyone's mind that day, and most people were at home, many on social media.

  •  Use hashtags for location and trend - The trending tag #ONStorm and localizing tag #HamOnt for Hamilton, Ontario, were used.

  •  Tag Influencers - The Weather Network Canada is always looking for viewer created content.    (If it is timely, or unusual, they may even broadcast your image or video and credit the post's creator.) The Weather Network Canada viewed this (as they were tagged) and shared this video post to one of their  "Twitter Moments".  Even with 1.5 million followers only a fraction will see each post. I'll take a fraction of 1.5 million whenever I have the opportunity.

  • Pro Tip: Take the time to add captioning to the videos to increase engagement and shares further. Most videos on social media are started with audio off.
